Beauty on the Cheap

Cheapest way to get your hair in better condition:: Stop blow-drying your hair two days a week. This includes heat styling. (Optimally you would be saturating your hair in a highly moisturizing product these days as well.) Cheapest way to color a few grey strands - eye shadow. Rub it on straight from the shadow palette. And it washes right out. I have spit-ends - yikes! Sorry sister, you need to cut em off. Your hair simply won't grow until they are gone. FAST FACTS: Hairstylists LOVE it when you bring photo's. We really do. Yes. You have to use expensive shampoo (unless you have hair of steel.) The rest of the crap is just marketing. Read this:: Curly hair is less hydrated and more porous. No way around that. Pay careful attention to heat styling and coloring, curls rock - but not when they look scraggly. Curly hair is also usually better left to air dry - blow-driers usually blow out the curl and make your hair huge. Bangs can save you money from having to get Botox. Coloring your hair can really soak up natural oils from your roots. If you have fine hair that is prone to oil it probably loses volume as well - clean fine hair is limp hair - it requires the cuticle to be roughed up (damaged) to gain volume. Obviously volumizing hair products work well, but not as well as color. Lastly, as people age you can see it in their face, hands, and hair. Do what you can - but a full head of shiny hair keeps you looking young.
